Overview:

On the 28th, the 2nd Battalion of the 5307th Composite Unit set up a defensive perimeter at Nhpum Ga to stop the Japanese 114th Infantry Regiment from advancing north through the Tanai valley to attack the flank of the Chinese 22nd Division near Saguzup. For several days, Merrill's Marauders endured artillery barrages and probing attacks from the Japanese. To make matters worse, elements of the Japanese 55th Infantry Regiment had joined the siege. By the 31st, the Japanese had completely encircled the 2nd Battalion at Nhpum Ga and were in position to make an all-out assault against the Americans. They opened with a heavier than normal barrage from the howitzers and mountain guns supporting them.
Attacker: Japanese (114th Infantry Regiment/55th Infantry Regiment)

Hexrow U is misnumbered. The first hex is U1, then a hex with no coordinate. Call that hex "U1.5".MMP
SSR1: All Interior Jungle hexes are Dense, but in most cases, however, the "oversized colored center dot" in a Jungle hex designates Light Jungle [EXC: hexes U9-U11].MMP
Hexes E9 and P10 can be entered at the path rate from, respectively, F9 and O10. Hex L12 can be entered at the path rate from L11 and L13.MMP

2025-04-13(D) Tuomo Lukkari vs Teemu Lukkari Japanese winThis is great a PTO scenario! Our game was a real nailbiter, both suffered heay losses. During turns 5/6 it seemed that US would win as Japanese would run out of time to get all the VC hexes, but in the end a key CC win and couple of low odds shots breaking key US squads bled the US dry - last hex was taken on Jap turn 8 CC.

This one what PTO is all about!
2024-01-14(D) Kevin Duval vs Dwayne Duval American winJapanese lost the will to fight in Turn 3 with casualties mounting ... 16 squads, 4 Crews & 6 Leaders KIA.
2024-01-14(A) Dwayne Duval vs Kevin Duval American win
2015-07-24(A) Andy Beaton vs Marti Cabre American winFinished with 1 IJA squad vs two American crews and one leader left, but I didn't have time to clear the last Americans out of the victory area. A very destructive and fun game.
2015-07-24(D) Martí Cabré vs Andy Beaton American winAn excellent scenario featuring desperate hand to hand combat in Burma jungle between American raiders and Japanese. The Americans are totally surrounded but have huge firepower. The Japanese must ignore their bloody losses and advance for the kill. There were many many HtH CC attacks that ended with everybody dead. Many Americans died for failure to rout. And the Americans ended firing their .50 machineguns until they burnt and throwing DC charges as D1F on charging Japanese units. At the end, a lonely Japanese squad faced two American crews on the last hill, not being able to break them both at the same time, so they commited seppuku and the Americans won.
